I bought some 18" AMG style (monobloc ?) wheels + nearly new Continental M+S rated tires on Saturday. The bolt pattern + hub center + backspacing all appear compatible with my W210 - but the dang lug bolts are too long.

Any idea what model Merc I should use to look up some aftermarket lug bolts? Febi/Bilstein makes a lot of lug bolts...but I'm not having much luck finding anything but the ~2.5" long OEM lug bolts.

I tried looking up lug bolts for a 1999 E55 AMG - on the assumption that car used these 18" wheels. I'm going to take one of my OEM lug bolts and compare the "thread protrusion" between the OEM wheels and these 18" straight pimpin' rolling stock. The difference was ~1" when I checked on Saturday night - but I want to get a more exact measurement.

Thanks!

Beers,

Matt
